Good evening,
I have recently acquired this original Watanabe signed from 1959. It was one of the back & whites which tend to be more rare before he went with more colorful pieces. I am wanting to know the recent value of this piece and may consider selling.

Many thanks,
Justin Holder

Could this be the work of his that has been one of the 2 unrecorded ones of 1959? One was of Abraham and Sarah & Ishmael and Hagar? Ours could also be similar to the Laborers in the Vineyard, as the symbols and serpent are the same?

Thanks,
Justin
